A French Jew and colonel and chief intelligence officer in the French Army that works with the Qing Bang. Although he has mastered Hokuto Sonkaken, he prefers using conventional fighting methods like guns and swords, irritating even the likes of Mang Kuangyun at one point. He has a sister, Sophie, who suffered trauma resulting in memory suppression due to her experiences in escaping from Nazi Germany as her husband (a non-Jewish German who was prohibited from marrying her by Nazi law) got sent to a concentration camp. When she regained her memory by Kenshiro's acupressure, she was assassinated by Zhang Taiyan. During the battle between Kenshiro and Zhang Taiyan, he defended Kenshiro from the Honghua Hui bandits. Then he met with the members of Wuchamen-Dang and after hearing their story, he allowed them to interrupt the battle. Upon learning the truth about his father, Taiyan wanted to die, but despite his pleas, Guise decided to temporarily abandon his revenge and left a cruciform scar as a reminder of their upcoming battle. De Guise was eventually wounded fatally by Liu Feiyan when the latter deemed him unfit to take care of Erika Arendt and challenged him to a duel. Kenshiro used acupressure techniques on him to prolong his life just long enough to watch his friends staging a glimpse of his vision -- a Shanghai in prosperity (where Jews can take refuge). Believing that Kenshiro and friends will make it come true, he then died in peace.

Trivia

In the anime, it was Simeon Nagid that killed him instead of Liu Feiyan.
Charles de Guise bears several similarities to Rei from Hokuto no Ken. Both bear villainous appearances when they first appear but are soon revealed to be on the good side as well as crucial allies to the main character. Both have younger sisters who suffer from disorders and both die after their lives are briefly extended.
